EA Adds More TV Talent To Madden 2005

EA announced that theyve added two more TV sports personalities to Madden NFL 2005. Jill Arrington and Tony Bruno will join John Madden and Al Michaels who are already in the game.

Tony Bruno hosts EA SPORTS Radio in the new Storyline Central featured in Madden NFL 2005’s franchise mode. During the game’s weekly sports talk radio show, he takes calls from fans, real NFL coaches and real NFL players – adding unprecedented depth and realism to Madden NFL 2005’s franchise mode. Bruno spent over 30 hours in the recording studio to provide material for this feature. Bruno has been a nationally syndicated radio host for Fox Sports Radio the past four years and prior to Fox, spent eight years as the anchor host of ESPN Radio.
